The multi-groom is beard-centric with a much narrower blade making it ideal for trimming beards but it's just ok as a hair clipper, it also typically comes with other attachments like nose hair trimmer etc.... whereas the hair clippers are full-size cutters which is great for hair, but mediocre for beards. It's too bad Philips decided to have 3000, 5000 and 7000 series of both hair clippers and beard trimmers which adds to the confusion.

Would you say this hair clipper is any good? I have an ooooollld philips multi-groom (i assume) that has an attachment for hair. I can select multiple sizes but the sizing is pretty sketch. If I don't do it at the right angle or put too much pressure, it'd cut hair wrong.

The 7000 has a Li-ion battery, comes with a beard attachment, case and few other things, and the length increments are 1mm instead of 2mm which makes blending much easier. WM, BB and LD carry that one but they're all OOS.
